All accounts would have been debited by midnight last night if you had bid successfully for tickets.  Nothing on my credit card this morning, so I know we've missed out.

Cheers.

Didn't go for a crazy amount of events or anything, but amazed to have got nothing.

Missed out myself, may try going down the EU sourced tickets route

e.g.
https://london2012.sportsworld.co.uk/

Missed out on yesterdays deadline on that site by seconds - they closed applications just as I hit "send".

£196 debited for me.   I went for a large amount on the basis that I wouldn't get much - I was right on that assumption. Intrigued to see what I end up with .

No bovril in the whole of Bangkok

Strangely that is one of the few things I can buy here.  What i'd give for a nice jar or marmite or some pickled onions.

Sure I saw Bovril in the supermarket under the Central department store in Pinklao when I was over there in October last year, obviously they could have sold out by now.

I have a lead on Sukhumvit.

Hoping the Mrs. will check it out for me this week.

Always buy privately if you want more bang for your buck.

Indeed, but with a very slight increase in risk. With so little to spend on the car its going to be pot luck anyway I suppose.

The clutch cable going on your car, calling your mate to tow it and finding out the towing eye is not in the car for it to towed! Cheers then!
